Pasadena Weekly, Album Review >>

Unlike 2008’s “Sonido Amazonico!” “Canibalismo” takes Peruvian chicha as springboard rather than defining element. That may play well in spontaneous live settings, but it contributes to interrupted momentum here, as the enticing beats of “Juaneco en el Cielo” and “Papageno Eléctrico” are flattened by the French spoken interludes of “L’Age D’Or.” But the vibe’s loose and upbeat as the Brooklyn sextet freely melds twangy surf guitars, timbales, mellotron, synthesizers, lap steel and cuatro with varied Latin percussion. At Bootleg Bar in LA Tuesday, May 8. Barbesrecords.com
